Hi Peter,

Planewave CDK20 f/6.8 telescope (D=508mm, EFL=3420 mm) with IRF90 rotator/focuser.

Planewave A200HR GEM with the 0.07” absolute encoders.
FLI Proline 16803 CCD camera (9um pixels, FOV 37’ x 37’) + Apogee 10 position filter wheel loaded with 50mm square Astrodon LRGB-HaO3S2-VcRcIc filters.
Lodestar autoguider mounted in an Astrodon MMOAG.
Housing is a 3m Scopedome with modified shutter (so the 20 can see zenith!).
The exposures were all 30min long at 1x1 binning, 9/5/5/5 hrs of LRGB.



Cheers everyone.
EB
